Keith Richards, guitarist for the Rolling Stones, turned 70 today. He's inspired many, many people to start playing, and has lent his distinctive voice to quite a few Stones songs.
The wonder of it all is that he's made it to 70. Drug use, heavy smoking, drinking and the "Rock 'n Roll" lifestyle, have killed several of his peers. Usually at a much younger age that him. Some pundits have also takes a few digs at Richards over his age, past and appearance, with some saying he may be 70, but looks about 140. Others have said he looks like he's been rode hard and put away wet. And while I'm not a huge fan of the Stones: Happy Birthday, Keith.
And if that's not enough, Hollywood actor Brad Pitt turns 50 today.
